Short-term vacation rental The property's fair value at €727,613 suggests it is priced fairly at €699,000, which indicates minimal room for immediate appreciation. However, with a gross yield of 2.8% and a neighbourhood score of 53/100, the investment may face challenges in generating strong rental income during tourism fluctuations. Buy-and-hold The stability of the investment is tempered by limited economic diversity and the reliance on tourism in the Algarve, making long-term growth prospects modest. While the property is valued fairly at €699,000 compared to its fair value, the lower tenant quality and neighbourhood score may affect long-term appreciation and rental demand.
Tenant turnover risk The combination of a 50/100 economic stability score and a 50/100 tenant stability score suggests a higher likelihood of tenant turnover, which could lead to increased vacancy rates and associated costs.
